Great-Grandma's Birthday

This weekend we celebrated my Great-Grandma Morlock's 85th birthday. She was sure happy to see all of us but she kept telling everyone she was 58, not 85! We love you Great-Grandma!

My New Sand Box!

Daddy finally bought me some sand to put in my sand box that I got from Great Auntie Mille and Great Uncle Gerald. I love all my new toys too. I'm still getting the hang of what it means to play with the sand IN the box, right now I just like to pick it up in my bucket and dumping it onto the grass. It's a good thing daddy bought lots of sand!

Diddle Diddle Dumpling

For some reason, don't ask me why . . . but whenever I sleep I have to have one foot in the crib and one foot out. You might not be able to see, but I also have one sock on and one sock off too. My name might have been John in another life. :-)

Pool Fun with Mommy

Mommy took me swimming today out at the Water Park. It was my first time and I was a little scared at first, but once mommy took me down the slide I decided this place was OK! The baby pool was just my size. You can see the water came up only to my waist. I can't wait for Mommy to take me there again!

Shoot for TWO!!!

Yeah, I know . . . I'm my own biggest fan. Just look at this video of me, every time I make a slam-dunk I clap away!!! I'm just so proud of myself, but then again who wouldn't be! Thanks Great Auntie Maribeth for the basketball and hoop you gave me when I was born. It has given daddy and now me hours of entertainment!!!!

Too cool!

Yeah, I like my new shades, I think I look pretty cool! If you look close, I'm wearing mommy's necklace. . . just long enough for her to get a picture, then I wanted it off, NOW!!! You also may be thinking that my hair looks a little red in this picture, mommy is blaming it on the lighting! :-) But, Papa does think my hair is going to be red, mommy saids "No, Strawberry blonde!"

My Little Pony

Great Grandma always said she wanted a black horse, but Grandpa would never buy her one. So this spring at the young age of 84, she decided to buy one herself! The horse's name is Cricket and I can't wait to ride her. Addi and Adyn already got to last time we visited Nana and Papa. Daddy says I need to be a little bit older, but it won't be long before I'll be roping calves with her. Great Grandma knew Cricket was going to have a baby colt this spring and she said that Addi, Adyn, and I get to have her colt! Don't we have a "GREAT" great grandma?

Well guess what!!!! This morning when Nana and Papa woke up, they were sure surprised to see her new little stud colt standing beside it's mama! I can't wait to go see him, but until then Nana sent me some pictures. He isn't even a day old, but look at him stand. . . what a cutie!!!

More TROUBLE!!!

Have I told you how much I like helping Mommy?

Yeah, not quite sure what I was doing here. . . I just wanted to show mommy how talented I am and how I can walk with a basket on my head, without bumping into anything. If you are wondering about the no pants. . . it is because mommy just changed my diaper and was getting my bath tub ready.

And one last picture from the night . . . mommy was getting some new diapers out and while she was doing that, I found this great new toy! I played for a good twenty minutes with my new toy. P.S. If anyone needs Christmas ideas. . . just wrap me up a plain box!

Did someone say, TROUBLE?

Mommy only turned her back for a second when I got into the pantry and found a box of cereal. I started walking around the house with the inside bag from the box. Mommy thought it was kind of cute how I could stick my whole arm all the way down to the bottom to get a piece of cereal to eat. Mommy didn't think I could cause too much damage since there was only a little bit of cereal left in the bag. . . but boy was mommy wrong!

This is the look I gave when daddy got home and I saw him coming up the stairs. Daddy wasn't too mad, but thought mommy maybe should be watching me a little closer. Mommy thought maybe daddy shouldn't leave his sweatshirt on the floor! :-)

Loving Libby

Here is a picture Mommy took of me yesterday out playing in the yard (my new favorite place to be) with my dog, Libby. She actually sat still long enough for me to touch her. I thought that was pretty cool.

Walking on Grass is Tough

Daddy, Mommy, Libby (my dog), and I were outside enjoying the nice weather tonight. I had never walked on grass before and boy, was that tricky!! Here is a little clip of me walking to Mommy to get her phone! I wanted her phone so I could call all of you to tell you I LOVE YOU, but last time I tried calling you, Mommy said she thought I called Austria by mistake. One of these days I'll get your numbers right!

PUSH the PLAY button under the picture to see me walk!!!

P.S. Mommy made this post just for you Mimi. . . hope it gives you something to look at during all your free time at work! Love you!!

Cinderella!

After I saw mommy scrubbing the floor under my high chair where I spilled at lunch, I walked over to Mommy's drawer where she keeps all her rags (I've seen her go hundreds of times when she needs to wash my face!) and I got out a wash cloth and started helping mommy scrub the floor. Daddy got the video camera out and mommy started flashing her camera. I don't know what all the fuss was about, but they kept laughing at me and calling me Cinderella. I didn't care, I just kept scrubbing the floor. Mommy was so proud of me and said I can help her scrub anytime I want!

Devil Horns?

Mommy did my hair a little differently today. I thought it was cute, but mommy thought it might have turned me into a little devil child. Look at the pictures and you can make your own judement!

My New Wagon

It was nice enough outside today for Daddy to take me for a walk in my new wagon. Mommy made sure I was bundled up really good. . . so good I could hardly move. I love my new wagon! Thanks Grandpa and Grandma Holland!

Spaghetti Face

I love Mommy's spaghetti! Needless to say, I was sent straight to the bathtub when supper was over!

Poor Daddy!

Daddy sprained his ankle playing basketball at the State Amateur games this weekend. Poor daddy!!! He can't walk very good, but he still can play lots of games with me on the floor!
